About the Book

My next novel “Indiscretion Highway” is under development. This time I outlined the whole story and worked out the ending. The story is complicated and I wanted to make sure it would work. Quite a bit has been written

So, what does an airplane have to do with the story? Not much. Sometimes the smallest events or observations spark an idea for a story or maybe just become a supporting element.

Some of the most peaceful moments in my life and some of the most terrifying occurred on airplanes, including being struck by lightning flying through one of those Iowa thunderstorms.

The peaceful airplane events which contributed to the story has occurred a number of times in my life. When I am sitting on the runway waiting to take off sometimes I lay my head back on the headrest (not as comfortably today) and often doze off. I don’t hear the takeoff but wake a few minutes later when we are passing through the clouds. When I first open my eyes, it feels like heaven.
